22 For the Lord will not abandon His people on account of His great name, because the Lord has been pleased to make you a people for Himself.
23 Moreover, as for me, far be it from me that I should sin against the Lord by ceasing to pray for you; but I will instruct you in the good and right way.
24 Only fear the Lord and serve Him in truth with all your heart; for consider what great things He has done for you.
25 But if you still do wickedly, both you and your king will be swept away."
